[PATCH][next] Bluetooth: a2mp: Use struct_size() helper

From: Gustavo A. R. Silva
Date: Thu Feb 07 2019 - 19:28:23 EST


One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:

struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};

size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = alloc(size, GFP_KERNEL)

Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:

size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
instance = alloc(size, GFP_KERNEL)

This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
